10 Places to Fulfill Your Overwater Bungalow Fantasy

Three American hotel owners known as the "Bali Hai Boys" are said to have come up the concept of the overwater bungalow. Over 50 years later, it is still a major draw for visitors to the islands of Tahiti, especially Bora Bora with its heart-stopping views of Mount Otemanu. The magnificent St. Regis Bora Bora Resort boasts the biggest overwater bungalows in all of the South Pacific, which include a king-size bed, a sitting room, a terrace with a private dining gazebo, double sinks, a full bath, an indoor shower, an outdoor shower, and Tahitian artwork. All come with butler service; some have pools and can sleep up to six people. Group trip, anyone?
